I love pre-packaged foods that are easy to grab and go, but I don't like that those same foods are usually heavily processed and include a huge list of ingredients that you can't pronounce. So, I was really intrigued when I came across GoPicnic and their line of ready-to-eat meals and Care Packages. Talk about a fun review! This certainly was!

I received the "Kids Lunchtime Favorites" Care Package (which is not on the site at this time). It included the following goodies:

Everything came in a sturdy flip-top box and was packaged securely inside. I really liked that all the products (besides the Annie's Cheddar Bunnies) were full-size! This was such a fun package to receive in the mail, and I can tell you that your kids away at college, or that live far from you would LOVE to open this up! It was such a treat! Actually, I had never tried most of these products or flavors before, so it was also very fun to sample each one. I liked each product, and even found a few new favorites in there too! I like GoPicnic's focus on more natural snacks and foods, and I found most of these were full of pretty natural ingredients.

Here is what was included in the GoPicnic ready-to-eat Salami + Cheese meal box. Since this meal does not require refrigeration, it would be a great choice for road trips, picnics, airplane trips and layovers, and emergency preparedness. This was a Classic Deli meal, and there is also a selection of All-Natural meals I probably would have enjoyed better. However, all GoPicnic meals are made with no trans fats, no high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), no added MSG, and no artificial flavors or colors.

Price: Care Packages are $29.99 each, but on sale for $14.99 at the time of this posting!

The Verdict: For a fun lunch or meal on-the-go, I would highly recommend checking out GoPicnic.com! There really is a package for every person's taste and I enjoyed eating the more natural snacks without the major quilt of most snacks!
